The HMRC company car advisory fuel rates that apply from 1 June 2022 have been increased reflecting a sharp increase in fuel prices over the last quarter.
These HMRC rates only apply to:
reimburse employees for business travel in their company cars; or
require employees to repay the cost of fuel used for private travel.
Electric cars - The advisory electricity rate for fully electric cars is 5p per mile. Electricity is not a fuel for car fuel benefit purposes.
When employees are reimbursed up to the advisory fuel rates for business travel in their company cars, HMRC will accept there is no taxable profit and no Class 1A national Insurance arising.
Advisory fuel rates from 1 June 2022:-
Hybrid cars are treated as either petrol or diesel cars for this purpose.
HMRC reviews these rates quarterly.
